We just lost 3TB of data on a SanDisk Extreme SSD

How are these still on sale?

Anyone else have a similar experience with one of these drives?

      You’re probably fine, all drives have failures and I haven’t seen anything to indicate this is a widespread issue with the drive.

        The manufacturer has acknowledged it’s an issue and has issued at least one patched firmware. This isn’t a “luck of the draw” or isolated issue.

      I wonder if it’d be worth returning if you’re still in the window. I don’t know how common the issues are though. Maybe check out the Ars Technica article someone linked?
